At Abbey Farm Cottage we have a small pedigree herd of goats each one of them we know individually by name. We specialise in Boer and Golden/ British Guernsey Goats.

​

My Passion for goats came about when Jonty bought me 5 Boer Goats for Christmas 2015 Blondie, Luna, Lucius, Bellatrix and Narcissa (spot the Harry Potter theme). Both Blondie and Luna were in kid and summer 16 they produced 4 kids this was the start of Smock Alley Goats.  Blondie our Foundation doe of the herd is unfortunately no longer with us but her legacy continues in Luna , Heather, Betty, Jigsaw and Puzzle.

 

Here at Smock Alley Goats we pride ourselves in breeding top quality  stock all kids are registered with the British Boer Goat Society.

​

Later in 2016 I purchased a Saanen goat Sara to provide milk for orphan kids should the need arise,her first kid Dottie a Boer Cross arrived the following year and luckily we had no need of milk for orphan kids.

​

I had a surplus of milk, so I tried making goats cheese for our own consumption. Friends tried my cheese and it proved very popular. So I decided to introduce some other milk goats to my herd including Olive the  Toggenberg, Clemi and George the Golden Guernsey and expand my cheese making.

​

This small expansion of my  herd led me to fall in love with the Golden Guernsey breed , as the saying goes the rest is history  we now have a dairy herd of around 20 ladies. We aim to breed quality goats who are good milkers with good temperaments eventually achieving a British Guernsey Herd, all doelings are eligible for registration with the British Goat Society.

​

We have a selection of breeding stock available throughout the year, including  does in kid and also does with kids at foot. Alongside this we regularly have youngstock available to suitable homes.
